The sIaryels Of IN. Mai,

New York World: The statistics OF
the New York postoffice for the last year
presents some large figures. More than
100000 letters were distributed
through boxes. and more than l2O, 900, GOO
were delivered by carriers. In addition
to these, nearly $4,000 900 postal cards
were boxed and delivered.
1t would be curious development If
we could discover the amount of Joy and
sorrow, of pleasure and pain, conveyed
IN this enormous correspondence. How
many hearts were made glad by the post
mans whistle, and to how many was it
the bearer OF unpleasant and unvelcome
news? Imagine the amount OF sweet

be gathered by dreft on the love letters
which no doubt formed goode portion

nearly 100000 postal cards were sold
during the year. The total weight Of

was oyer is3 tons, or 10 per cent. more
than i've ears ago.
We can form some idea from these
figures what the extent of the mail ser
vice would be II there were no telegraph
lines in existence. The telegraph ia q

Does not this prove the duty the tele-
graph companies are under of studying
the public interests and convenience
and of acting Justly by the people ?
Docs it not also show that it Is the duty
OF the government to hold check on
those corporations and to prevent them
